Chocolate Version Of The Wasc Cake Please?

I love the wasc cake and I'm wondering is there a chocolate version I can have like the same texture as the white. Please no pudding mixes ok...

pastrygirl, these are the substitutions I use:
2 boxes chocolate cake (instead of white)
6 whole eggs (in place of 8 egg whites)
2/3 c unsweetened cocoa (in place of 2/3 c of the flour - still use 1 1/3 c flour)
I use 1 1/3 cup coffee + 1 cup water (in place of 2 2/3 c water)
I got this combo off of another thread on CC. Sorry I can't give specific credit.


Here's my version for ONE box:
1 box of chocolate cake mix [I use Pillsbury's - the one that contains 1 cup of pudding in the mix]
1/3 cup all purpose flour
2/3 cups cocoa [I use Hershey's unsweetened]
1 cup sugar
3/4 tsp. salt
1-1/3 cups coffee [I microwave 1-1/3 cups of water for 50 seconds and add 1-1/4 tsp. of instant coffee to it, stir, then let it cool a little]
2 Tb. vegetable oil
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup sour cream
3 lg. eggs
Place all dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir with a whisk. Add the remaining ingredients and mix for 2 minutes. Pour into greased and floured pans [I use butter and a parchment circle], filling each a little over half full. Bake in a pre-heated 325 deg. oven till it tests done [Mine takes 45 minutes].
